If I may interject my 2 cents here.....buying from Distribudora Gonzalez will be a mistake unless price is of no issue to you. That happens to be one of the most expensive stores in Puerto Plata, and I speak from experience. For example, I bought a gas cooktop stove from there for RD$24,000 (no comments please :ermm and then ended up seeing the exact same stove in Santiago for RD$15,000! Trust me, you can shop there if you like, but for major purchases I always make the small journey to Santiago. What you need to understand is that most of the business', if not all, in Puerto Plata, travel to Santiago and even as far as Santo Domingo to buy stuff to bring back to Puerto Plata to sell in their store at a hefty profit. If you go to Santiago or Santo Domingo direct, you are then cutting out the middle man and saving yourself a lot of money.
